Maybe you remember this one, when Obama signed a bill last month, which, if I remember my Schoolhouse Rock correctly, makes it a law, he said he would simply ignore the parts he didn't like. This is something a dictator in a banana republic might say. After all, everybody knows that Legislatures can be a real pain in the arse when it comes to taking over the country.
Well, the House has this crazy notion that President Obama is not above the law.

So there are two idiots in the House who believe their positions are useless and/or superfluous? Interesting...
W did it all the time.
So, W isn’t president right now. Does that mean it is still fine?
One of the best taglines I’ve ever seen.
It never was fine. W should have used the veto much more often instead of signing statements.
So what if Bush did it all the time? Libs use that line as if it addresses the question. In this case, the GOP demanded the provision Obama wanted to ignore as a condition for voting for it. Then Obama wants to ignore that part, thereby nullifying our guys’ votes. I think that is a problem.
“So there are two idiots in the House who believe their positions are useless and/or superfluous? Interesting...”
Most likely “Mad Max” (Maxine Waters) and someone else from the Congressional Black Caucus.
Sounds like the GOP was pretty stupid.
Whatever happened to line-item veto - is that still ever used?
Re: Line Item Veto
Ruled: Unconstitutional.
Yet that is essentially what 0bama is doing - the line item veto, without any legal basis.
“Legal basis? We don’t need no steenking legal basis!”
Even the DUmmies reamed their Messiah a new you know what regarding this. They didn’t like the Kenyan doing it either.

He is about to find out he isn’t the dictator he wants to be. For that to happen, he’s going to have to take on Congress and about 100 million Americans. He’s a sissy, no way, he will pee his pants, get his fuzzy blanket and lay in bed curled in a fetal position.
